Howdy, Anyone interested in a game of DaiDai Shogi via email? I have played via email a few times before, so I am already aware of how long a game can take and...

Howdy, I'm making some 3d models of some shogi variants and have a question regarding the sizes of the pieces. On my shogi board I see that the King is the...
Hi Phoenix Here are the standard sizes for normal Shogi pieces, which should help you a
little. When I made the variant sets of pieces, those sizes applied and...
Hi George ... Probably Yahoo not using a fixed width font, or something similar. The information's readable though. ... This is similar to what I'm looking...
Hi Phoenix There are six basic sizes. The piece sizes used in Chu Shogi are chiefly but
not exclusively as per the Japanese made sets. The Lion, Free King and...
Howdy, ... The other sizes you mentioned make sense and seem pretty similar to what I was thinking. I don't understand why the Lion, FK, and DE would be...
Hi Again Ky and Ph are on Rook-size. These sizes I gave you are as per the Japanese
made sets and so should be correct. Yes, I do have Ko Shogi pieces...
Howdy Roland, Interesting site :) I see you have some variants there not available on any other site that I know of. Do both player need to be online at the...

I was enthusiastic about a new Shogi Variants server. But now it's just a downer for me. The katakas site doesn't work on my PC. I get the "silverlight" error...

A little bit. The bad thing is that you get an X (like a missing picture?), instead of a nice picture, inviting you properly to install Silverlight. Actually I...
Howdy, The time is drawing near that I'll have my Ko set completed and will hopefully be able to start playing. :) I've hopefully got games lined up with at...

... Although I still play Dai Shogi, what makes it less interesting to me is the lack of the Lion capture rules from Chu. ... I agree with you that the shogi...
Actually I was overall wondering if such an hypothesis was obviously absurd, unthinkable. After all, the dropped shogi and the Dai Shogi could have been...
